I'm working on Tier 2 for the CorSec missions trying to do the "Recover Information from Nym" mission that's assigned immediately after obtaining my first skill box on that tier. When I go to Lok, a waypoint is created as a possible location to find the target, but there is nothing there when I arrive. I have aborted and tried the mission three times now with the same result. Is this working as intended and I'm just not doing something right, or is this mission broken?

When you get to the waypoint just fly around the area looking for your target it will likely be flying near by or may take a min to hyper in.

That's what I was thinking too, but I flew around the area within a 3000m radius toggling through all targets available (some up to 6000m away) without seeing anything. Each time I tried this for about 30 min before giving up.

If the missionis what Ithink it is.Then It does not have a yellow box around it. It is called a nym cannon(could be canon)ship there is usually 3 ships at a time there.

Just about to log in and do this mission myself. It sounds a lot like rebel mission where the is no specific mission target, but that they put you in the area of many of the spawn types. Try just disabling the various ships out there and inspect them.

I did this mission three times myself. The key to completion is hanging around the "possible" WP, flying in circles until the target spaens. It appears as a kimogila (SP) med heavy fighter. It took about 15 minutes before it spawned. Don't blow it up!! Get close, match speeds, inspect then dock. If docking is refused target the engine and disable it. Then dock. It seems that other pilots, searching for XP, can target and destroy this ship so warn them off until you get the orders, then let them blast away. You can actually complete this mission without firing a shot, if you're lucky.

I hope I'm lucky... I ran into this ship yesterday while I was out there just shooting stuff in hopes of looting a better reactor. It completely wiped out my front shield and half of my armor with one shot. Then he took out most of my backside when I turned tail to run. My shots barely even took his shields down by 5 points.
If this is who I'm supposed to be looking for on that mission, I strongly doubt I'll be able to force him to let me dock...
Thanks for the tips.

... that doesn't sound like the right ship.
Where you perhaps shooting the gunboat that wanders around?
The ship is called "Nyms cannon ship" it is a kimagola, and when I did the mission I was just about to hyper out sick of waiting when it showed up ...
note: I don't recall it registering as a hostile ship I think I had to cycle all targets before I found it.

You're right - my mistake. It was the Gunboat that nailed me. This mission really was pretty easy once the ship spawned.
